“Surprised no information about recycling”

“Charming, cozy cottage in a perfect location.”

Very good facilities, but the cooking pots are really in need of new acquisition. Nevertheless: highly recommended!

“Lovely location and beautiful flat.”

Excellent for both town and exploring around. Could do with a deep clean as when we moved the bedside table to check for a lost earring , the cobwebs were in abundance.Also cobwebs above the bed.
The flat above had a 2 year old and 5 year old with parents staying and the noise from the kids running feet at 6.45 am on wards was really noisy and a pain when trying to sleep . Otherwise -great !

“Easy to find dog friendly cottages and easy to book.”

We were happy with the price we paid and at being able to pay in instalments. Helpful emails received through the process and prior to arrival. We would use your company again.

“A very fine appartment!”

“The Slipway is a very cosy and comfortable cottage.”

It was exactly what we had hoped for during our two night stay. Perfect location and close to everything in town. The very welcome box of chocolates and red wine were also appreciated - thank you.
There are a few things I would like to mention, which might be useful to the owners:
Firstly, it would have been so nice to have arrived to find some milk in the fridge, and some teabags. We struggled
through the snow and ice of "The Beast of the East" to get to Slipway and then found we had to go out immediately to buy these simple, cheap items before we could make ourselves a cuppa. Also the coffee and tea mugs were badly stained and I had to wash some cutlery and crockery before using them. It would have been really helpful, too, if there had been some soap in the bathroom - again, it was another trip the shops in the freezing temperatures.
Secondly, we asked for a slightly later check out on Sunday (one hour) which Thaddeus kindly agreed to; but I just wonder if 3pm check in and a 10am check out is rather ungenerous, even for allowing for the cleaners to changeover. In my experience a 2pm check in and a 12 midday check out has been the norm.
These are only observations which I hope might be useful. They didn't stop us having a lovely time a The Slipway - albeit very short.
Thank you again.

Cons:Garden not attached so if staying with a dog have to walk a short distance on the road to let them out Parking not obvious to find. Overall a great place for exploring the area and would definitely stay again

“We took Slipway as part of a larger party staying at The Abbey.”

It's a nice small flat. Not really suitable for more than 2 people as the bathroom is off the main bedroom so does not work for 2 couples. Very pleasant though.

“What a gem of a holiday cottage!”

So comfortable had everything needed for a perfect break. Centrally located in Penzance within easy walking distance of pubs restraunts and shops and quay. Lovely bottle of red wine to welcome us. Dog friendly only one word of caution the only entrance and exit is via front door which opens straight out onto road not a problem for us but maybe with some dogs or children if they dash out.

“Very considerate landlord who left a very kind welcome pack-eggs butter etc.”

“A warm [central heating] welcome and some unexpected provisions.”

About the location

PENZANCE

St Ives 8 miles.

One of Cornwall’s most popular holiday areas. The spectacular sweep of Mount’s Bay, from the cliffside fishing village of Mousehole through Penzance and around to beautiful Marazion, hides a wealth of sandy beaches, rocky coves, winding village streets and other places to visit and explore. Connected by causeway to the shore at Marazion is the National Trust’s stunningly beautiful St Michael’s Mount with its hilltop castle and Mediterranean gardens. Walk across at low water and take one of the ferry boats back when the tide is up. Penzance with its winding streets, shops, clubs, restaurants and harbour is a must as is the jumping-off point for day trips to the Scilly Isles. The South West Coast Path passing through Penzance winds its way along the clifftops towards Land’s End. On the way, stop off for a coffee and a rest at beautiful Lamorna Cove, explore the open air Minack Theatre and marvel at the cliffs as you approach Gwennap Head. A stunning walk for those seeking solitude, exercise and some of the UK’s best coastal scenery. Penzance is the perfect holiday base. Ideally placed for exploring this land of Celtic myth and legend and with enough to do and see in the immediate area to keep all the family occupied.
